Young father, alumnus killed in attack
Obituary: 1981 graduate worked in for Boston firm, traveled for business often

Rodney Glazers subway commute to work took him directly beneath the World Trade Center every day. A few minutes after his train passed under the Twin Towers on Sept 11, Glazer heard the story on the radio.
A plane, possibly a hijacked com-
mercial airliner, had crashed into one of the towers.
As news trickled in, Glazer became alarmed — one of the hijacked planes was a Boston to Los Angeles flight on American Airlines. His brother, Edmund Glazer, a 1981 USC graduate and chief financial officer of the fiber optics firm MRV Communications, frequently flew on business to Los Angeles from his home in Boston.
The moment Rodney Glazer reached his office in mid-town Manhattan, he tried to contact his
brother, but Edmund Glazer could be difficult to reach. Rodney Glazer left him a couple of voicemails and hoped for the best.
During the next few hours, the news grew more frightening, so Rodney Glazer headed to his home in Brooklyn. Lengthy subway delays kept him from home until 4 p.m.
He found his wife waiting for him.
"She looked very agitated. She said, ‘Sit down, sit down,’ but before 1 could even sit, the phone rang," Glazer said.
The caller was his sister in
Toronto. When she told him what had happened, they broke down over the phone.
Edmund Glazer was on American Airlines flight 11, the first plane to hit the World Trade Center. He was 41 and is survived by his wife, Candy, and thier 4-year-old son, Nathan.
USC officials announced his death earlier this month.
In October 1994, Edmund Glazer headed for Boston to serve as operations manager for MRV Communications. Eight months I see Obituary page 111

Afghanistan may not take long to rebuild once the fighting there ceases, but the damage to its people could take much longer to repair, a member of the Revolutionary Association of the Women of Afghanistan (RAWA) said at Taper Hall of Humanities Monday night.
A 1997 study found that 90 percent of Afghan women suffer from psychological problems, said Tahmeena Faryal, the RAWA member who spoke at the event. A study taken now, after four years of Taliban rule, would yield higher figures of problems, she said.
Under the Taliban regime, the role of women in society has been ail but eliminated, Faryal said. Women are barred from attending school, required to cover their bodies almost completely and prohibited from leaving their homes unless a close male relative accompanies them.
Faryal contrasted womens cur- '■ rent educational opportunities to the situation before Taliban rule. Then, more than half the students and three-fifths of the teachers at Kabul University were women.
The Talibans rigid rules are not confined to women, she said. Afghan men must wear traditional clothing and long beards. They are also [ required to pray at mosques five specified times a day. Men found on the street at these times may even be put in jail, Faryal said.

When Summer Stearns was arrested for using a fake identification card, she immediately wondered how she could get another one.
“It was worth taking the risk in order to be able to go out with my friends," said Stearns, a senior majoring in business. “Sitting at home drinking gets old after a day."
Stearns was arrested for the
felony of impersonation while trying to (ret into Champs, a bar in the Irvine Spectrum. In court she was able to reduce the felony to an infraction and decrease the $5,000 fine to $500. Her drivers license was restricted for one year.
Like Stearns, many students use altered or fake driver’s licenses in order to get into bars and clubs.
Stearns’ punishment did not change her attitude toward fake IDs.
“Drinking underage is something that everyone accepts in college,” she said. “Because such a large amount of people break the law, we feel it does not exist"
Karen Stemheimer, professor of sociology and expert in deviant behavior, said drinking laws do not reflect the actions of college students.

Student workers for Campus Cruisers and the Department of Public Safety have been accused of sexual harassment by students this semester.
Officials from both organizations say reports of sexual harassment are anomalies and that screening processes for hiring are thorough.
Two separate incidents of sexual harassment have been reported.
In mid-September, a student driver for Campus Cruisers was accused of sexual assault A student reported that the driver stopped the vehicle near the destination and began to kiss her and fondle her breasts. The driver claimed the contact was mutual and the reporting student did not wish to prosecute. The driver was later fired for driving outside the designated service area.
Last month, one resident accused a Student Law Enforcement Program officer of harassing her in the dormitory he was supposed to be patrolling.
